Hi Fellow Members,
The weather is getting warmer so it's time to take out the car again and have all my goodies installed. I'm looking for a reputable shop on Long Island or Westchester. I know about VinTen which is one of the places I will be going to tomorrow, there was another one mentioned I think in Patchogue but I can't for the life of me remember the name. Could someone freshen my memory with the second shop on the Island and if you know of one in Westchester I could use that to. I also can't remember the name of our contact at VinTen. I will need the following installed, FI cat back exhaust, Eibach springs and front and rear spacers installed. I would hope to pick a shop the is familiar with the FI exhaust. Thanks for the help.
Kindest regards,
Tom

Vinny ten is a really nice and smart guy who can help you out himself. I've been by his shop a few times, highly recommended!

So I took a ride to Performance Motorsports in Shirley Long Island today to get a price on having all my goodies installed. I will get to that in a minute, but first I was told by Andy (owner/installer) that I'm going to have a shaking problem in the front if I install the H & R spacers. Now I know there was a problem with some spacers but I was sure that there isn't a problem with the H&R spacers that have the replacement studs. Please correct him (me) if he's wrong. He told me he would install them for me but I would be back to have them removed. I would also like to know how you folks feel about the shop. I was given a price of $480.00 + tax to install front and rear spacers, Eibach springs and the ever popular FI cat back exhaust. Your thoughts please. I will be going to Vinny Ten on Thursday. If there are any other shops that are recommended in the Long Island or the Westchester area please let me know
Kindest regards,
Tom

Had the chance to meet Vinny today and was happy I made the trip. He's a really nice guy and listened to all my concerns. His price was a little more $510.00 out the door, but I know I will be happy using him so it's worth the extra money to me. Looks like next week if the weather holds up.

We are out in NNJ a bit far our pricing would be about the same as both those quotes. We've installed a few sets of eibachs and FI exhausts.

Thanks for the info. At least I know that they are in the ball park. I'm going to have Vinny Ten do the install for me on Wednesday or Thursday.

Good shop in Norwalk, CT called TheShop

http://www.theshopct.com

They do mostly STIs and Evos (natch) but I saw a badass FI 350Z there the other day while I was doing a dyno pull.
